If you want a little more selection on cereal, I just left Winco and most of the Kelloggs were priced at $1.98 a box. I used my $5 off 5 coupon to get them for 98 cents each… a bit more, but I was very happy.

you can only buy 4 of the sale items, so it would be 4 boxes of cereal. That’s why she suggested price matching at target or walmart, because then you can buy 5 boxes price matched for the sale price of 1.88 and use your $5/5 coupon

I think my store interprets it differently. Each kind of cereal is considered a different item, so I could get 4 Rice Krispies, 4 Frosted Flakes, etc. That’s how it is on the diaper sales anyway. I can get 4 Size 4’s, 4 Size 5’s, and 4 Overnights, for example.

I tried to price match at Meridian Walmart and they told me they don’t price match Rite Aid ads. Has anyone else been told this. it’s been a while since I have read their coupon policy so maybe I missed it.

yeah, we do price match rite aid ads, but if it mentions up rewards, you dont get that price, just their base sale price. BUT, i know for a fact the meridian walmart cant price match the frosted flakes because they do not carry the correct size thats printed in the ad.
didnt check the other cereals tho, but it looks like ill have to go to rite aid for my frosted flakes.

Was pretty excited about the softsoap deal, even though its not listed as a great stock up price, but coupons didn’t work on it. Size restriction states above 8oz and the ones on sale are only 7.5oz. Just a heads up to all you other couponers.

I went to Rite Aid today and did the cereal deal. I asked the cashier and she said the 4 limit is per kind of cereal because it goes by the UPC code on the box.. so yes you CAN use the $5/5 coupon at Rite Aid just the the 5th box can’t be the same as the other 4! =)

I saw the softsoap deal and was excited and went and got some, then came home to see everyone saying the coupon wouldn’t work cuz of the size, but she took mine, i thought they scanned but I was talking so i don’t know if she had to enter them in, now i feel guilty I got something with the wrong coupon!

Thank you that makes me feel better. we are all human and when you’re new at this and no one knows to correct it, it can happen. I will definately do my best next time to make sure I’m getting the right item thank you all for making it alot easier! Love your blog!
